Abstract:
Objective:To observe the epidemiology, clinical manifestations, laboratory tests, imaging findings, treatment and prognosis of patients with corona virus disease 2019.Methods:Clinical data of 109 patients with suspected and definite corona virus disease 2019 admitted to the Sixth Hospital of Wuhan from December 24, 2019 to January 28, 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Statistical analysis was performed by using t test or chi-square test. Results:Among the 109 patients, 54(49.5%) patients had definite contact history. Among the 109 patients, 104(95.4%) presented with fever, 37(33.9%) with headache, 78(71.6%) with general pain, 88(80.7%) with fatigue and poor appetite, 23(21.1%) with diarrhea, 94(86.2%) with coughing, 23(21.1%) with shortness of breath, 57(52.3%) with palpitation, 45(41.3%) with chest distress, 4(3.7%) with chest pain, 40(36.7%) with lung rales. Forty-two cases (38.5%) had leukocyte count <4×10 9/L, 58 cases (53.2%) had lymphocyte count <1.5×10 9/L, 27 cases (24.8%) had hemoglobin <120 g/L, 37 cases (33.9%) had lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) >230 mmol/L, 29 cases (26.6%) had pro-brain natriuretic peptide>300 ng/mL, 87 cases (79.8%) had hypersensitive C reactive protein>10 mg/L, 26 cases (23.9%) had D-dimer>0.5 mg/L, 35 cases (32.1%) had coagulation disorder. On admission, chest computed tomography showed that 27 cases (24.8%) of pneumonia were unilateral, 82 cases (75.2%) were bilateral, and most of them were ground glass. The leukocyte counts, LDH, pro-brain natriuretic peptide and D-dimer of severe/critical cases ((11.33±4.87)×10 9/L, (527.51±260.87) mmol/L, (722.88±189.56) μg/L, (4.24±1.89) mg/L, respectively) were all higher than those of common cases ((4.02±1.49)×10 9/L, (159.75±30.31) mmol/L, (428.22±124.76) μg/L and (0.41±0.22) mg/L, respectively), while the lymphocyte count of severe/critical cases ((0.60±0.17)×10 9/L) was lower than common cases ((1.13±0.43)×10 9/L) ( t=11.36, 11.33, 9.81, 2.81 and 7.77, respectively, all P<0.05). The comprehensive treatment included antiviral drugs, prevention of bacterial infection and supportive treatment, and glucocorticoid and respiratory support treatment were administrated when necessary. Conclusions:The corona virus disease 2019 is characterized by highly infectious, rapid progression, and diverse clinical and imaging features. Early diagnosis and active comprehensive treatment could improve the prognosis and reduce the mortality.
